    I didn't pick it up but I wrote a short post on it
    https://novelsformy.blogspot.com/2019/02/the-duchesss-fifty-recipes-for-tea.html

    I dropped it because it didn't suit my taste
    also I recalled there was a part I was so annoyed by.
    I think it went something like this
    Someone needs a doctor
    All the people around panicking
    Mc : call a doc pronto!
    Everyone : wow ! are you a goddess ? :aww:
    Me : :facepalm:

    or it went like this
    Everyone :We hate you
    Mc brews tea
    Everyone: are you a genius ?:blobnosebleed:
    me :blob_coughblood: ....

    At least that the feeling I recall when I think about that novel. Also they talk a lot about food so i was always hungry .

    Well it only got like that in the middle .
    I probably got tired of this faster because I was reading so many absurd isekai novels at that time.
    It was fun at first so don't drop it .I feel responsible if you do so here are more detailed spoilers
    I did like it a lot at first

    -hubby likes it ask for tea I think they drink tea once a day
    -she shows and explain variety of teas ,talks in depth what to eat with what tea

    -It keeps going like this where Mc wins over the entire british fantasy world and hubbys heart with her tea skills and calm mature style
    like not panicking when someone injured calling a doctor....:sweating_profusely:

    I dropped it because I knew where this was heading but you get the idea
    Also the villianese was a maid of all people! FYI Chole is the highest noble lady:blob_coughblood:
    Yes she bullied her since childhood but still...and the reason was childish .I think she used to belong to society and was bullied so to avoid that she bullied someone shyer .Even if she a maid she felt higher then Chloe:blobunsure:
    Sigh
    Chole ,I read many web novels but I never met someone who was powerful and rich from the go getting bullied by someone who was so lowly .Everyone was always nice except some servants and jealous ladies :blob_catflip:. yes hubby is cold but he very respectful . Mc won him over by speaking to him while looking at him and drinking tea together .
    Now you lost your body to Mc and she the cream of society with just a few pointed words.
    seriously there barely any face slapping moments :sweating_profusely:
    Poor Chole~! :blob_teary:

    I think she made peace with her
    I can't remember I need to reread it .
    all I remember is long detailed description of tea and food
    I learned coffee cups cant be used as tea cup because the shape infect the taste . I recall certain teas go with certain cups .
    (I also recall I vowed to drink tea from only tea cups and then the next day I immediately broke it and drank tea from a mug.:hmm:)
    I also recall the hubby like the way she looked when she talk about tea full of life and not dead inside. So easy to win the Ml over!
    Again poor Chole :blob_teary:

    Oh I forgot to add some other facts
    - she "Invents" milk jam and does business with a friend
    -Husband helps her
    -I think there was another reason why servants didn't like her ,Chole blame her mistakes on another servant randomly
    -She lost her authority as a mistress because she handed her accounting responsibility to the butler
    -she can regained it after proving she can be trusted with money
    -regaining authority means the power to handle money which means power to fire servants
    -I think she already won over most servants at this point but I think they do end up crawling back to her
    I think at this point I was skimming so I'm not sure exactly what happened
    -she gets tested three times on accounting which she pass but on the last one ...
    -The evil head maid plots to destroy her standing by ruining her last test .
    -she switches the letters to the market getting bad ingredients
    -she helps a store selling off excess cheese by running a promo there could be gold in your cheese
    -She got fresh ingredients in return and gifts for the kitchen servant
    -
    The Pros
    The point is the story was really fun at first with Mc reliving Chole life and turning it around
    The husband was really attracted to her really fast which Mc didn't notice (how typical)
    So much details and recipes for tea!

    The Cons
    However no matter how fun it starts to drag needlessly
    during the business part I got bored and felt Mc should just fire that evil maid
    too much descriptions of people praising Mc excessively
    Seriously every single word she says is being praised at one point
    The husband supposedly cold unemotional type but is good to her too fast never look or touch but suddenly making moves on her
    Dude ! I like more natural relationship with gradual sexual tension
    I felt everyone was a bit unrealistic especially the servants
    Also all the tea types are there and all the tools even the eastern tools needed is in the store where no one knows how to brew tea
    FYI I don't even see all those tea tools in my local tea store so everything really works out for Mc too much
    I think the last straw was when she taught people to cure themself with vitamin C
    That doesn't have to do with tea ! she was becoming like Surgeon Elise or is Elise like the duchess?

    I felt it was getting ridiculous so . ...

    I mean, this webtoon is good to read after getting your head fed up with webtoons who have characters plotting your own death (who made me a princess, the abandoned empress, Adelaide etc). The webtoon is just about the mc making up the mistakes the og duchess has done and also developing as a person herself i guess. Also her relationship develops slowly with her husband. Its just a lighthearted webtoon ig if lighthearted and “cool” webtoons are not you cup of tea then you will find this webtoon boring. Just had to say all of this again so that, that ^ person who summed up the novel wont effect your opinion about this novel. You should give it a try if you want it
